FBI ranking of the top 10 most dangerous/safest cities in US (Morgan Quinto Press)

6. Birmingham, AL Colonie, NY

First blush pondering:
The most dangerous part of the country could be the Midwest, with 6 of the 10 most dangerous cities.
The safest part of the country could be the East, with 5 out of the 10 most safe cities.
Old industrial cities are 8 of the 10 most dangerous.
All of the most safe cities are smaller than any of the most dangerous cities.
The two cities that I live between (about 20 miles or so from each) are 12 (Baltimore) and 19 (Washington) on the most dangerous list.
